Game Thread: Royals @ Twins 1:10 PM 5/30/2021

Minaya gets his turn, and... NEXT PLEASE!

[mrtwinsfan]

Mr,Minaya welcome to the twins bullpen, 

[MMMordabito]

This is just pitiful. The Twins could sweep the O's coming up and it's still hopeless.

The Royals are not a good team, but they are better than the Twins

[RickOShea]

Ok, so once again the opposition comes into our home, pushes us around, bitch slaps us a little bit, a kick here and there, and a wad of spit in our faces.  Yes, this is TWINS Country!!!!!!!!!!!

[ashbury]

Terrible out call by the 1B ump. Half a step - hardly needed to be sent to NYC for review, just reverse it.

Brother, I feel you

Minaya has a cocky strut to the dugout.  "Hey guys, only 1 earned run given up.  You effers top that".

Miguel Sano (Sorry to him for piling on today, but done with you)

top that

An idle wager, since there won't be another inning for anyone on the Twins to pitch.

[RickOShea]

It's so nice, not to see Gordon in LF.

[ashbury]

I hope no opposing advance-scouts noticed that curveball Kirilloff struck out on. Whew!

[RickOShea]

Another pee in the wind experience.

Maybe BSN is doing me a favor by not allowing me to watch the games....

[mikelink45]

Thank you for staying - I left, went out and had some whiskey with my friend.  Much nicer than this game and series.

Agreed, so much for “no rookie could match Eddie’s production”. Alex has been much better than 2021 Rosario.

But what if we had Kiriloff and Eddie instead of Kepler?

Name the TV series that most represents the 2021 Twins. Six Feet Under.

The panel would also have accepted "Napoleon Dynamite voice":

Let me wrap this up - Ks are better than contact, but contact wins the game.  Go Royals. 

[SanoMustGo]

Who thinks the O's end their 13 game losing streak tomorrow?  It's going to end sometime.  Bad timing playing them next.

 

 

[wavedog]

Sano comes out of hibernation once every 10 days - other than that his plate appearances are a disaster.  In fairness it is not just him - it is a team effort.   I think we have seen enough of Shoemaker at this point as well - time to replace him in the rotation.   Bullpen is the same all year - continually does not rise to the challenge. Even when they hold a lead it’s like walking on a tightrope.

This was a certifiable terrible game. Reminded me of all those games just like this in April. Twins hitters were AWOL The k's were back in bloom.

I no longer think that Cruz is the guy I want up in 'game' situations. His bat has become dangerously weak. Don't know what has happened to him....other than age!  But its kinda sad to watch his AB's these days.

Anyway, an awful game and a frustrating one. Now they have to deal with a team that has lost 13 straight and you know they are ready to bust out soon.

I suppose, but both Eddie and Max have been disappointing this season.

Samurai Jack.

Unfortunately we are going the long way around as a healthy Byron Buxton has been flung into the future where Aku's evil is law.
